Как исправить легкий пластилин

1. 

   1

   Add water. Put the Play-Doh into a small cup or bowl, then squeeze a drop of water onto it. Do not douse the dough. Go slowly, one drop at a time, so that you don’t use too much. Try to fill in the cracks.^[1]
   

   • If you are working with a large amount of Play-Doh, feel free to start with more than one drop of water. Try using a teaspoon-full.

2. 

   2

   Knead the Play-Doh. Use your fingers to work the water deeply into the dough. Roll the Play-Doh into a ball, stretch it out, pull it apart, and fold it into itself. If the Play-Doh is still hard after 15-20 seconds of this, add another drop of water and keep kneading.

   Be persistent. Continue to add water and knead the Play-Doh until the putty is soft again. Don’t worry if the dough is wet and slimy – just keep kneading.^[2]
   Within a few minutes, the dough should be soft and pliable as new.

   Wrap a wet paper towel around the dough. You can also use toilet paper, a tissue, a napkin, or any other soft, absorbent paper product. Run water over the paper towel so that it is thoroughly soaked. Then, wrap the wet paper around the dough.

   • This is a good second method once you’ve already tried kneading water into the dough. The kneading trick is quicker and more straightforward, but it doesn’t always work.
   • Make sure that the dough is relatively compact. Try rolling it into a ball or a clump. This way, it will be easier to wrap the towel.

2. 

   2

   Put the dough into a sealed container. Consider using original plastic Play-Doh container, if you have it, or just using a small Tupperware. Make sure that the container is airtight so that the moisture from the towel doesn’t evaporate.

3. 

   3

   Leave the Play-Doh to soak overnight. Wait a day or so before you remove the Play-Doh from the airtight container. Peel the paper towel away – it should no longer be wet. Feel the Play-Doh: squeeze and pull it. Gauge whether it is soft enough.

   • If the dough still isn’t soft, try adding more water and kneading it in directly. The Play-Doh mixture is mostly water, salt, and flour, so you might be able to restore the balance by re-hydrating the putty with enough water.^[3]
     
   • If the dough doesn’t become soft again with repeated efforts, it might be time to throw it out. Consider buying or making new Play-Doh.

   Break the brittle Play-Doh into bits. Snap it down into shards so that each piece can absorb water more quickly. This should not be hard to do if the dough has stiffened. If your Play-Doh is very crumbly, be careful not to spill!

2. 

   2

   Put the Play-Doh pieces into a plastic bag. Make sure that the bag is seal-able and water-resistant. A Ziploc bag is ideal, but you can use a non-resealable bag as long as you tie it shut.

3. 

   3

   Mix water into the Play-Doh. Seal the bag, then knead the water and the dough together. Start with just a few drops of water, to be safe, and keep adding water as you squeeze. Do not add so much water that the color bleeds and the bag becomes soggy. Go slowly and methodically. Keep kneading until the dough feels soft.^[4]
   

4.

   Leave the water and Play-Doh in the bag overnight. Let the dry dough absorb the excess water. Make sure that the bag is sealed so that the moisture doesn’t escape! Within a matter of hours, the Play-Doh should be soft, supple, and as good as new! The exact time will depend on how much dough and water you’ve used.

   • Don’t take the Play-Doh out of the bag until it looks fairly dry. If the dough is still very wet, the color might bleed off onto your hands.

• If none of the above methods work, try simply dunking a ball of Play-Doh in water for 15 minutes. The dough should absorb enough water in this time that it becomes soft again.^[5]
  Be aware that the coloring might rub off on your hands!

• Keep adding water if the Play-Doh is still hard.

• Just sprinkle some water and keep it in pressure cooker for 5mins. Dough will be softer as a new one.

Show More Tips

• It’s a craft medium and should be given to a child as such. Please keep them supervised by a responsible person.

• Be aware that mold and other bacteria may be housed and thriving in the dough. Inspect it for light or dark circles forming around the driest areas and smell it to make sure it’s ok. It should not be slimy or rancid. Discard any strangely discolored globs, and connected bits. Then wash your hands before making or handling any more.

• Despite common misconceptions, while most Playdoughs are non-tix, they are not actually safe to eat. Ingesting even small amounts can induce tummy pain, queasiness, nausea, malaise, fever, bloating, constipation/diarrhea, vomiting (often violent/projectile) and internal blockage.

• If you add too much water, the dough may get mushy. Keep kneading it until the texture returns to normal.^[6]

   Добавьте воды. Поместите пластилин в маленькую чашку или миску и капните на него водой. Не наливайте слишком много. Делайте это постепенно, добавляя по одной капле воды за раз.^[1]
   

   • Если пластилина много, можете добавлять сразу несколько капель, используя для этого чайную ложку.

2. 

   2

   Разомните пластилин. Постарайтесь размять пластилин пальцами, чтобы вода проникла вглубь массы. Скатайте пластилин в шарик, растяните в разные стороны и снова сомните в плотный комок. Если пластилин все еще остается неподатливым спустя 15–20 секунд работы с ним, то следует добавить еще одну каплю воды и продолжить разминать.

3. 

   3

   Проявите усердие. Продолжайте добавлять воду по капле и разминать пластилин до тех пор, пока он не станет мягким. Не следует беспокоиться, если он стал влажным, просто продолжайте разминать.^[2]
   Через несколько минут пластилин должен стать таким же мягким и податливым, как сразу после покупки.

   Оберните Playdough влажным бумажным полотенцем. Вы также можете использовать в этих целях туалетную бумагу, салфетку или другой впитывающий бумажный материал. Смочите бумагу водой, чтобы она хорошо пропиталась. Затем оберните пластилин этой бумагой.

   • Это хороший запасной вариант размягчить пластилин, после того как вы уже попробовали размягчить его с помощью воды. Этот вариант быстрее и проще, но он не всегда дает ожидаемый результат.
   • Пластилину следует придать компактную форму. Попробуйте сделать из него шарик. Так его будет проще завернуть в полотенце.

   Положите пластилин в герметичный контейнер. Лучше всего поместить пластилин в пластиковый контейнер. Убедитесь, что контейнер герметично закрывается во избежание испарения влаги.

3. 

   3

   Оставьте пластилин на ночь. Подождите сутки, прежде чем достать пластилин из контейнера. Снятая обертка из бумажного полотенца должна быть сухой на ощупь. Попробуйте пластилин на ощупь: сожмите и растяните его. Он должен стать мягким.

   • Если пластилин все еще твердый, добавьте немного воды и разомните его. Пластилин состоит из воды, соли и муки, поэтому, если воды было достаточно, его структура должна восстановиться.^[3]
     
   • Прекратите попытки, если после всех усилий пластилин все еще остается твердым. лучше купить в таком случае новый.

   Разломите пластилин на несколько кусочков. Маленькие кусочки быстрее поглощают влагу. Если пластилин засох, это не должно вызвать трудностей. Если Playdough сильно крошится, соблюдайте осторожность, чтобы не рассыпать его по всему полу!

2. 

   2

   Положите кусочки пластилина в полиэтиленовый пакет. Убедитесь в герметичности и водонепроницаемости пакета. Пакет с застежкой идеально подойдет, но вы также можете использовать и обычный пакет, просто плотно завязав его.

3. 

   3

   Налейте в пакет немного воды. Завяжите пакет и разомните пластилин с водой. Начните с нескольких капель воды, а затем добавляйте ее по необходимости. Не наливайте слишком много воды за раз, иначе краситель может потечь или пакет станет слишком мокрым. Делайте все медленно и последовательно. Продолжайте разминать пластилин, пока он не станет мягким.^[4]

   Оставьте пакет с водой и пластилином на ночь. За это время пластилин поглотит остатки воды. Убедитесь, что пакет герметично закрыт, чтобы вода не вылилась наружу. Через несколько часов пластилин должен стать мягким. Точное время будет зависеть от количества воды.

   • Не вынимайте пластилин из пакета, пока он не будет выглядеть достаточно сухим. Если пластилин будет все еще влажным, вы запачкаете руки.

• Продолжайте добавлять воду, если пластилин все еще твердый.
• Лучше оставить эту затею, если он никак не становится мягким. Купите или сделайте новый пластилин.
• Если ни один из вышеперечисленных методов не сработал, попробуйте просто опустить шарик пластилина в воду на 15 минут. За это время пластилин должен поглотить достаточное количество воды и снова стать мягким.^[5]
  Помните, что красителем можно испачкать руки!
• Смешайте пластилин с небольшим количеством воды (можете распылить ее на Playdough) и поместите в скороварку на 5 минут. Через указанное количество времени Playdough станет как новый.

• Если добавить слишком много воды, пластилин может стать слишком мягким. Продолжайте разминать, пока он не приобретет нужную консистенцию.^[6]
